When I was a little younger, I used to try and get my dog to wear a scarf or a sweater, and he would immediately take it off. From this I concluded that dogs don’t like wearing cute dog clothes. But recently there was a Jack Russell who was very fond of his waistcoat, and I learned that if its fits, it’s comfortable, and it keeps them warm, some dogs do like to wear clothes. If it looks good, that probably makes the dog feel good about all the attention he or she gets, which is another plus factor, but comfort is what matters most of all, and has to be a good dog owner’s top priority. I used to work at a pet store and had to laugh at all the people that came in with their dogs dressed up in little jackets, dresses, hats, and so on.  It was amazing that people spent so much money on items that most dogs have no need for and even less desire.  I say most dogs because I have met a few dogs for which clothes are necessary.  My dog, for example, hates the rain and will not go outside to do her business without wearing her raincoat.  Other dogs like Chihuahuas get cold really easily in well air conditioned buildings so they may need sweaters to keep them warm.  I see these as necessities.  We had a dog that used to come into the store (I am not sure what kind) that had very little hair and sensitive skin and eyes.  This dog could not go outside without complete body cover-up and goggles.  Without this covering, the dog would have sunburned and possibly went blind.  This is a true necessity.  Those people who dress their dogs up in clothes because they look cute should really think about on what they are really spending their money.
